The NBA playoffs begin Saturday with a quadruple header. The Milwaukee Bucks, the number 8 seed in the eastern conference will play their first game at Miami on Sunday. Vegas has chimed in and placed odds on each team for winning the NBA title. It's no shock that the Bucks face the steepest odds at 500-1. Interestingly enough, the Bucks were given 125-1 odds during the pre-season. That should give you an idea of just how much faith Vegas has in the Heat cutting the nets down.

It's rare to see Milwaukee Brewers left fielder, Ryan Braun mired in a slump of any kind. The fact that he is one for his last seventeen with ten strikeouts has certainly raised some eyebrows. For the first time in his career, Braun struck out four times in the Brewers 10-8 win over the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night at Miller Park.

Marquette junior guard Vander Blue will sign with an agent and declare himself eligible for the 2013 NBA draft. During his three seasons with the Golden Eagles, Blue showed steady improvement and accepted the challenge of becoming a team-leader. The Madison native lead the team in scoring at 14.8 points per game, while shooting a career-best 45% from the field and earned all-Big East second team honors.

I have never done this before, and I have no idea what possessed me to try it, but I took a stab at predicting what I think the Green Bay Packers 2013 regular season schedule will look like. The official schedule is expected to be revealed a few days before the start of the NFL draft on April 25.

I don't know why I play the prediction game - I never seem to come close to being accurate. Nonetheless, as first pitch nears for the Milwaukee Brewers, I have put the finishing touches on how I believe the 2013 MLB season will shake out. The bold print indicates teams I believe will make the playoffs.
